8 SMITHFIELD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 SMITHFIELD sales between February 1999 and November 2004 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the February 2000 sale was for 92% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 92% above the HPI over time, until the November 2004 sale, where it rises to 101% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 101% above the HPI.
